Pack 297 Fees Brochure



Our program fees cover 1 FULL year* of FUN, membership to the Boy Scouts of America as well as to Pack 297. If there are ANY financial hardships please call the Cubmaster, Committee Chair or Treasurer before making that the only reason you don't join in the fun. We do have a few Scholarships/Scouterships and some scouts have handed down their uniforms when they graduate.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Fees listed above do NOT include Uniform, Insignia/Patches, Field Trips, Camping, Events, Den Dues ($1-$2 per meeting) or all of the awards your son will earn. A boy earns an average of $120 in awards each year. For awards the boys hold 2 fundraising activities, 1 in fall & 1 in spring. These activities help scouts build confidence in themselves and develop communication skills required in today’s ever advancing world. We do not ask our volunteer leaders to pay for BSA registration - some of the cost helps cover this.

Boy Scouts of America (BSA) funds its many camp grounds and the few paid executives they have in each state through the Friends of Scouting fundraiser held in spring. This is where friends, family and companies of fellow scouts make a tax deductible donation to support scouting.
